First, this is a stunning design; I am a woman with larger hands and this is a beauty! The silver is polished and the top is slightly beveled so that there is a ledge that supports the sodalite stripes. I love it! and have worn it every day since receiving it. High quality and design :)
The picture doesn't do these earrings justice. They are perfectly sized and impeccably made. After purchasing these, I went on to buy several other designs by this artist and have never been disappointed. I also purchased a second pair of these to give as a gift.
